In the UK, over 70,800 people in the UK are living with young-onset dementia. But what’s it really like to live alongside the disease?

In this deeply personal and moving episode of The Daily T, we explore the realities of the disease with Martin Frizell, former This Morning editor and husband of journalist and broadcaster Fiona Phillips, who was diagnosed at the age of 61.

The couple, who have been married for 28 years, have written a memoir together called 'Remember When: My Life with Alzheimer's', opening up about the struggles they have both faced.

Martin joins Camilla in the studio to reflect on the last five years of living alongside Fiona's disease, how their family has coped and the challenges of becoming a full-time carer. He also shares powerful insights into the current state of Alzheimer’s research and why he believes it's still not getting the attention it urgently needs.
